I know that anti biotics will kill a bacterial infection, but, what can one take to kill a viral infection, or, at least lessen the duration of it?

olive leaf extract, oil of oregano, lemon balm, cat’s claw, coconut oil, Pau d’arco tea, grapefruit seed extract.

Ok I decided to be a Vegetarian because I cant stand how they kill animals in a mean way. My family always eat meat. So I need some websites that has good vegetarian recipes.

http://www.tryveg.com
http://www.goveg.com
http://www.peta.com
search around those sites.
they will also send you free booklets, information, stickers, bumper stickers, dvds, etc if you search around.

I’m trying to lose fat gain muscle (no surprise with those goals I hope). Can anyone here recommend any Supplements that I could get at a grocery store or something (I’m not looking for some obscure potion) that can assist me with my new diet and exercise routine? Anything that has worked for you? I am completly clueless of all things diet/fitness related by the way so if something seems too obvious to mention, please mention it anyway. Thanks.

Co-Enzyme Q10, helps the metabolic efficiency of anybody. Dosage is age related tho.
You don’t mention your age so there isn’t much more I can tell you.

On my arms and my legs, I have places where I have very dry skin and I was wondering if anyone knew what skin care lotion product is best for your skin that you can get a supermart or drug store? I want brands of lotion please!

If you buy a product make sure it doesn’t have mineral oil as that forms a barrier with your skin and since skin is a respiratory organ it needs to breath. For skin to retain moisture and not be dry it need to be able to absorb the moisture and retain it. I find it best to apply a good moisturizing cream immediately after I shower as this helps the skin to retain the moisture after being wet. Make sure the product you buy has the same PH balance as our skin which is PH5.5 as this helps the natural balance of our skin, and will help to reduce irritation and dryness.

Arbonne have some wonderful botanical products that combat dryness my son has terrible dry skin and feet and their product have had amazing results. However you need to have a consultant to purchase any products on-line.

Check out www.Arbonne.com if you need help purchasing click on consultants Linda Sackett and send me a message I’ll be happy to help you.

Does anyone know of a good website that has easy to prepare, low calorie/low fat recipes that don’t contain ingredients you have to go halfway across the world to find?

better homes and garden, familyfun.com and allrecipes are the main ones I use The family fun one has fast easy and healthy recipes for the whole family.

Do low carb recipes prove effective in reducing body weight?

How about trying the lil jack workout http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKCGe2Ezris

The general rule of thumb with things like this, is that if you even need to ask if it could be a hoax – Its a Hoax!

Follow that rule and you won’t get caught out!

i am vegetarian and eat fish. i’ve recently got really into cooking, and would love to know everyone’s all time favourites!
i didn’t ask for favourite vegetarian recipes as i eat fish too, which most vegetarians don’t. thanks for being sooo unhelpful, why waste your time trying to be a smarta$$?!

oh so many recipes so little time, I really love roasted veggie sandwiches on toasted wheat bun with a little melted swiss

For me I express myself through fashion. I buy clothes that are gonna make me feel good. I esp like to wear clothes that will make me unique or feel more like an individual cuz if I buy it in the city, well, how many peeps where I live are gonna have the same clothes as me ?

I also like to dance. My last ballroom dance lesson is next wk. Then it’ll prob start again in Mid or late Nov. I’m also thinking of taking hip hop lessons (H) Those lessons cost $ tho $40 for June. Or $80 for winter or spring. Thinking bout it anywayz…even tho I can’t really afford to. I wanna finish paying off my comp bill right away. Got tons of things to save up for. I may even just go & drop in one day. To drop in it costs $5. Not bad (H)

How bout the rest of you ?
Where are all the musicians ???
I also like to listen to music which reflects what kind of mood I’m in. If I’m tired & just wanna go to sleep or something I’ll put some soft music on. Sometimes I might be in the mood for 80’s music. Sometimes it’s R&B. So yeah, depends on my mood

My art..each art that i draw is always different..in mood, texture and design. However because it requires a lot of time and concertration, i paint less and less now…
